If you’ve ever tried to manifest your desires, only to feel guilty when negative emotions come up then today’s episode is for you.

Caitlin Matanle is calling out the good vibes crowd and explaining why toxic positivity is a harmful byproduct of the spiritual and personal development world.

Toxic positivity is defined as any type of excessive pressure to maintain a happy, optimistic state that results in the denial or minimization of authentic emotions and experiences. And this year we all know that staying positive has been harder than ever.

What would it feel like to take the pressure off and allow yourself to feel the ups and downs of life instead of forcing yourself to only have good vibes or raise your frequency?

By honoring your feelings and allowing yourself to be where you are, it’s even more possible to come into alignment with what you want to create.
